On networking I am aNewbie here.

I bought an older PC at a flea market the other day, it has Windows 2000 on it, and uses
a winbond W89C940 adapter. On my linksys router it shows that it is NOT full duplex and is
NOT 100.

1. I wonder if there is software that will allow this card to run at full duplex and/or
100.

2. Would my connection speed become better with the newer features of full duplex and
100 rather than what I now have, or am I just wasting my time going down this path?
My connection to the internet is working, as evidenced by this posting. My other computer
has a newer card that does function at 100 with full duplex.

Thanks in Adance,
